Tamiya A6M2 completed
JohnB replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/32 and Larger Aircraft Ready for Inspection
Thank you Rog! Very much appreciated. 🙂 -
Grey Matter had a nice resin conversion but I haven't been able to locate one. I guess a Trumpeter "F" could work as I could take the "F" nose and graft it on a Hasegawa kit. 🙂 PM me if you can help. Thanks.

Thanks Kevin! 😀 -
Done. https://forum.largescalemodeller.com/topic/20808-tamiya-a6m2-completed/

I'm calling this one done. Painted with White Ensign, Testors, and MRP. Seat belts are FineMolds. This particular a/c was crash landed in a swamp in New Guinea and it's remains, as far as I know, are still there. OOB build except for the belts. 🙂

Thanks Dennis.

I will overspray with clear gloss for decaling then with some semi-gloss. Ought to fit the bill. 🙂
-
That's too bad but you might be able to find a source here in the states. Try Colourcoats which is the same.🙂

I'm glad you like it, thanks! 🙂

I agree Kevin, thanks. I have several different shades and decided this one looked the best. 🙂

No, it's White Ensign IJN Nakajima Grey. Slow drying. Still a little tacky from yesterday.

Thanks Dennis. 🙂

Yes for now. Still have the weird gear legs to do. I don't anticipate many problems. 🙂

Got the cowling/engine, etc attached. There were some fit problems that took some "persuading" but it's on there now. 🙂

Thank you. Yes on the Eagle decals. 🙂 -
I have a bad feeling about that engine/cowling fit. I hope I'm wrong but I have the feeling it "ain't gonna fit right". We will soon see.
-
I decided to go on and sort this one out. I used my trusty Dremel to "persuade" it to fit and then slapped on some CA to be sure it stays that way. I hope there won't be any more problems.
-
I agree Carl. Those fiddly toy like features are a real PITA and I too am glad they quit adding them.
-
Agreed Dennis. I'll get back to it at some point.

Good luck!
